You might remember that back in November, I lamented the fact that I didn’t plan a day to relax before leaving on vacation. I have exactly one thing planned for the day before we leave this time: drop Freya off at the boarding kennel. So I have high hopes of a relaxing evening, at least.
Unfortunately, the coming week is going to be anything but relaxing at work. We have a few large projects starting on Monday (did no one get the message that Monday is a federal holiday?) and the entire week promises to be somewhat hellish. One of the projects requires contact with one of the biggest jagoffs on the planet and said jagoff’s clueless minions. That alone would make the week unpleasant. Add that to long hours and the rather tedious nature of the projects themselves, and it will make for a very long and horrible work week.
Posting from vacation didn’t work out that well for me in November, but I still managed to post every day, so I think I’ll be fine with completing this month’s NaBloPoMo. I have more interesting topics and photos to post when I’m on vacation, but I just don’t want to spend a lot of vacation time sitting at a computer.
One thing I didn’t have on the last vacation is my BlackBerry, which was purchased shortly after we returned from that trip. I really wish there was such a thing as a WordPress client for BlackBerry, and I was very surprised to see that no such thing exists. Go ahead, iPhone users, gloat a little about your selection of apps.
Even without a WordPress client, I think having the BlackBerry will help with blogging from vacation. But I don’t think I ever finished setting up email posting to this blog, so I’ll have to make sure to do that sometime before this weekend is over.
Back to proofreading! I’m trying to make sure I’m caught up on all the proofreading for Total Rottweiler Magazine, and all the updates for the various websites I maintain, before this weekend is over.
